Preg Checking

Our girls took a little road trip the other day to the vet.  They were preg checked (no pp in a cup), given wormer and such.  It is a messy job and thank goodness for our vets.  This guy is the "new one".  I've already apologized to him...I thought he was a helper the first time I met him, he looks SO young. 
Red spotted cow was READY to get out of there.  Pregnant=Gets to go back home.


"O" isn't good.  We had more in the open pen than we wanted, they weren't bred and thus no bundles of joy arriving in the Spring.  The bred cows were hauled home and let out in the pasture.

  1. Looks very familiar :)! We are working our cattle on Friday (I'm off work, kids have no school, my husband thinks that means FREE LABOR)! One question? Our vet comes to us to preg check our cows? We don't haul them into town?? Just curious.

    I'm with you on the "opens." Open = NOT GOOD!

    Here's hoping you have LOTS of little babies running around next spring :0! Have a wonderful thanksgiving!!!!!
